Glass Army

about

Impressively removed from its birthplace, famous for bogans, Silverchair and steelworks, Glass Army prop up songs about meds, the distraught remains of love and a cold city with shattering guitars and a clear-night-sky type of sound. Taking notes from Interpol, Editors and even, um, Coldplay, it lands itself somewhere between shoegaze, new wave and pop, simultaneously being jangly, epic and light enough to appeal to fans of each. Bios Baby doesn't rely on this esotericism, and definitely doesn't disconnect itself in the ball of introverted depression you would expect from lyrics like "You say it best / with a knife in your chest". Instead, it is emotionally engaging and warm, a strong, fluid tenor melding effortlessly with the sparkling arrangements. This being said, I still can't help feel as though I'm, at points, listening to a more intelligent Snow Patrol record User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
